Unfortunately my brother in law got a stage 4 cancer diagnosis last week. Sister in law is worried sick about affording rent now bil can’t work and she will most likely have to give up her job to care for him and their 4 kids.

The in laws are really wealthy, live in a massive 5 bed house and have several properties that the rent out that they own out right.

Aibu to think that mil and fil should help them out during this horrible time? They are known for being tight with money but how could you let your daughter have financial worries alongside the worry about becoming a widow and being left the sole parent to 4 kids. I’m so livid 😤

I agree, next time mil says how worried your bil and his family are about money then suggest they help.
Their reaction will tell you whether these are people you want in your life or not
